    was a good player for us and definitely not why we were so bad that year,we should have signed him when he was here ,he would hardly have the presence to replace wanyama if thats the case, unless hes grown about 4 foot

    Mulgrew clearly has feelings for the club that N'Guemo obviously doesn't, so he would always try harder to prove himself here, given a second chance.

    Yep. Didn't think N'guemo was that bad tbh, decent battler and tackler but his distribution of the ball wasn't the best. Wouldn't be too adverse to him coming back

    That period of our history ( Moggas team) is just a horrible blur and is dead and gone brining back any the reminiscence of that horrible team is a definite no no

    i think he was just unlucky that the team we had was pretty poor
    to be honest.

    His positional sence for a DM was pretty shocking. He always seemed to be the wrong side of the player with the ball. And his passing was pretty bad as well

    Bring him home.

    He'd give away the ball, and shoot miles wide, for fun up here.

    I actually rate N'Guemo when it comes to defensive mid and before we had Wanyama and a fit Kayal I was crying out for us to stop fannying around and just sign him up.

    My main problem with this move is that if we sign him he'd be as a replacement for Wanyama.

    IMO Wanyama on his day (i.e. in the big games) is amongst the top 5 defensive midfielders in the world and when he eventually moves on the media will recognise this as well as he'll play well week-in-week-out when playing against bigger sides and when surrounded by quality players. He's great defensively, his positioning is usually spot on and he's useful going forward and at set pieces. Obviously we'll struggle to replace any player like him him but N'Guemo isn't the answer.

    In his first half-season N'Guemo was probably as good defensively i.e. tackling, positioning etc. but he's utterly useless going forward and simply doesn't have the stature Wanyama has in terms of heading etc. so he'd struggle to be successful as a replacement. Kayal hasn't hit the heights of his first season but there's a player there and I'd be happier just sticking him in there rather than signing N'Guemo (who I reckon would command a fair fee).

    In summary I think N'Guemo would be a useful signing - no doubt - but he's no Wanyama and would need a tall, physical player alongside him as his flaws (heading, going forward) are as apparent as his strengths.

    Great player.

    Hope we break the bank to get him.

    Arguably one of the worst passers of a ball I have witnessed. Horrific in possession. Definitely don't want to see him again in a Celtic jersey.

    It's a no for me. His 2nd touch was always a tackle, not even close to what we currently have
